Yeah we need to change these things. Nurses and teachers are some of the most essential jobs in our society- we couldn't function without them. All useful jobs deserve to be compensated well but especially those two. We need many changes in laws and expectations regarding for working people in general. Some working people do make good money, but a lot don't and that's by design!

This young woman's partner sounds like a wonderful young man but it's pretty shameful that he had to go through the process that he did just to enter the country "legally" and that's also EASY version?!! And people wonder why others try to subvert the system when that's what they're going to have to go through! Not everyone has the luxury to be young, childless, full of energy, super healthy, suffer from no mental health or trauma experiences, have outstanding psychological stability and so on and so forth. Not everyone has those kinds of emotional resources to sustain this kind of neverending Kafka-esque process. There's a reason why tens of thousands are trying to come into this country through the southern border. They're desperate for very knowable and understandable reasons and they don't have 10 years to wait. There is no sane legal way for them to come in. When they try they're treated like animals and criminals and were recently forcibly separated even from their own infants. Such is the hatred for the person who doesn't have white skin by the feds. This policy was undertaken joyfully by those barbarians under the Trump administration but little has changed since. They claim they're not performing family separations anymore, any maybe not, but migrants are still being held like cattle in for-profit private immigrant jails, instead of humanely processed and admitted as political, violence or poverty refugees. There's no excuse other than racism to make immigration here so difficult. It was OBVIOUSLY designed to limit influx of those from non-white majority nations. Let's just admit it people- Congress and unelected significants on the Hill are a bunch of sick destructive psychopaths who are happily destroying the world right now, starting here at home.

Appreciate this guest. She has seen the madness that comes from an immoral hyper for-profit privatized healthcare system in this country when treating low-income areas. Only people at the very top of benefit, everyone else loses from our current system. While she did fantastic securing a strong income for herself, many other nurses are not so lucky and have to deal with poor wages and intentional understaffing to cut costs. Members of the public forgo desperately needed healthcare because they don't want to be hit with a ludicrously high medical bill for being prescribed ibuprofen and a band-aid. Meanwhile, health insurance executives and top hospital administrators have never made more money (gee, I wonder why!) It is a crime against humanity NOT to have full public healthcare coverage for every citizen in this country. No two ways about it. A trillion dollars for war games and BS every year from the feds, but not a penny for helping people stay healthy and get vital healthcare. The health insurance cartel is literally ROBBING hundreds of billions every year that should be going to healthcare workers and patients. This shouldn't be a THING. A full public healthcare system would end this or at least give people an alternative. It doesn't take federal action either, each state can enact their own version of public healthcare, but because the politicians are absolutely owned and operated by those who represent the ruthless profiteering interests of those who want to keep the status quo, they won't.

Agreed. I'm not a nurse but I'm aware of the problem. It's appalling. I don't know what's going to happen this country in the future. They're trying to bring back slavery one little policy at time. Both mainstream parties have been complicit in this. They want everyone to be slaves and only the very top level corporate elites deserve to make any money in their eyes for some reason. The rest of us should be happy working for scraps and when we resist that of course they claimed we deserve to be destitute or victims of violence. What a nice world.

You're absolutely right these are massive problems and I don't see them getting fixed anytime in the future. People are going to start dying in droves and COVID is going to look normal. More and more people are going to flee this abusive cruel environment that our ruthlessly predatory plundering robber baron for-profit hospital system is creating. I have no idea when this will end.
